Footnotes

  1. 94 Grk “said to them”; the referent (the council) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  2. 95 Or “Israelite men,” although this is less natural English. The Greek term here is ἀνήρ (anēr), which only exceptionally is used in a generic sense of both males and females. In this context, it is highly unlikely that this is a generic usage, since Gamaliel was addressing the Sanhedrin, the Jewish high council, which would have been exclusively male.
  3. 96 Or “men, be careful.”
